I'm a friggin retard.[views:2969][posts:6]__________________________________ [Jun 30,2006 3:07pm - niccolai ""] Of course mnay of you know I'm not the brightest person in the world, but a few weeks ago I ordered a bunch of DVDs from a retailer in New Zealand, as some of the titles are difficult to find in stores here and the few places that would import them for me want big money. anywho, I ordered 17 DVDs of various titles, and dealt with paying the retailer to import them. one small fucking problem. THEY DON'T PLAY ON FUCKING DVD PLAYERS HERE. I have two DVD players and these disks won't work in either. I have a europlayer.... in Florida. My fathers going to send it to me and hopefully that will fucking work. sooo retarded. |

______________________________ [Jun 30,2006 3:14pm - Egon ""] There was a story a few months ago about those cheap Walmart DVD players that can be easily altered to play other region DVDs. Or make 'backup' copies with a DVD burner and software like DVD Shrink or Decrypter. |

______________________________________ [Jun 30,2006 3:23pm - the_reverend ""] the apex players were $30 at one point and region free. they ended up raising the price after a while. that was like 2 years ago. |
